Dynastid Beetles certainly aren't the rarest of bugs, but they certainly know where you're coming from. The good thing with these bugs is that they can't move, besides when they fly away. Creep up on these guys with extreme caution, and swing your net as far away from the tree as possible, while still maintaining to get the catch. You should learn the distance of your net first!

"They're called beetles, wot? The lugs of the insect world. Insects with armor plating their backs, you know. Their armor, it... opens up, revealing wings. Which they use to fly! It's really quite unnatural. Then, there's that thin, membrane-like covering where their heads connect to their bodies. Most foul!"

Do tell, <player name> have you ever seen a dynastid beetle's larva? Oh, no trouble at all if you haven't, I assure you! If you had, we might speak of them, and then I would recall how vile they look. Let's forget it, shall we?

'Dynastid' refers to a type of beetle, the game's version of the beetle shares the most similarities to the real life Rhinoceros Beetle. The beetle starts life as a large larvae and develops into a strong animal later on. The beetle shares similarities with Caterpillars in various parts of their anatomy.
